You will get Immediately actionable pitch deck eval from 20+ year Silicon Valley Pro

Project details
On Upwork, you see a lot of people offering pitch deck services, but those services won't always help you create a strong, fundable deck.
I offer an experienced, professional look at your pitch deck from someone who creates them, and has seen many pitch decks. Also, I've seen a lot of them not succeed -- and I know why. I'll write a formal review of your deck, telling you what your weak points are, and I'll suggest ways to make it stronger, more targeted, more compelling.
Alternately, I can bring in a colleague to review your completed pitch deck and tell you what types of questions you will get in a due diligence review.
You can purchase this service at two different levels. For people doing their first startup, it's a relatively inexpensive opportunity to learn a LOT about what a business plan is and why the process of creating one is a great exercise for startup founders. (Anything that you create as a result of working with me will ultimately help your business, for example.)
And for people with more experience, it's a chance to show their work to a pro for a targeted mini-review to prep for submitting their deck to angels or VC's.

Market Sizing + Research
Cat was a fantastic contributor to work with. She is organized, thorough, and plugged in. She analyzed my project from multiple angles, considering various contextual factors. She was able to understand the nuances of my offering acutely and modify direction swiftly. She also went the extra mile, offering to connect me with appropriate individuals who I can learn more from. Thank you Cat!!

Kailua-Kona, United States - 3:03 pm local time
My clients come from business, technical, SaaS, ecommerce, AI, healthcare, wellness Edtech, fintech, social media, biotech market segments, and more. I fit easily into projects and add value, and am often brought in to give entrepreneurs perspective, strategic insight, and additional help to succeed. Very familiar with partnerships, marketplaces, personalized marketing approaches, business development and networking, and AI. Background includes product management, and processes, funding, marketing, and training, and I'm a published author.
Much of my consulting work is involved in developing strategy: product, corporate, positioning, messaging, or startup funding strategy. For a recent project, I helped flip a company into becoming an AI company, and for another project, I helped position a service into a wellness service, for enterprise investment and partnership. I have smart suggestions, and I'm often asked to help implement strategy.
I can help you understand your customer and market, refine your value proposition, identify key targets and partnerships, establish a viable company/product, and pitch your company to the right people in the right way. I also help founders, consultants, and companies leverage networks and do outreach to accomplish their goals.
As the former managing partner of a Silicon Valley communications company, and a company founder, I have hands-on experience establishing and implementing goal-based projects for companies, years of hands-on experience, and a strong network of colleagues. My added experience working with product management, manufacturing and hardware engineering give me perspective.
